Guild Wars 2

Stealth rendering STILL isnt working for me

I’m tired of watching myself take 10k damage over 3-5 different attacks before i see the thief come out of stealth

I’m tired of being hit by back stab and other stealth attacks only to see them pop into sight for a fraction of a second before restealthing… it is supposed to be 3 seconds.

I’m tired of never seeing my opponent 90% of the fight and dying because im swinging wildly, or on my mesmer, because i have to spam tab and hope to get my phantasms off while targeting him for the split second hes targetable.

I’m very tired of only losing to very bad thieves because i cannot see them at all and i’m tired of having a largely populated class with such a huge problem that is so unfun to fight.

We were promised a fix for this months ago and from what i can tell theyre working on it in WvW but its a problem in spvp too and I’ve seen no improvement. I literally watched the shortbow poison shot come out of thin air before i got hit with 2 heartseekers and weakness conditions. Then the thief was in sight for under a second before restealthing, hasting, and hitting me with 4 more heartseekers before stomping me STILL STEALTHED and then popping back into existence.

This is utterly ridiculously game breaking.

there was a fix months ago and in spvp it’s no longer a game wide issue.

only thing I can think of is your computer isn’t “up to par?” cause I mean I barely meet minimum with my laptop and I only get the steath issue in WvW, haven’t in sPvP since the patch.

I think im up to par

I usually don’t have an issue with this, but its a known problem for thieves using haste along with their backstab combo followed by heartseekers which doesn’t render properly.
